1 Ackroyd, Peter R. Exile and Restoration - A Study of Hebrew Thought of the Sixth Century BC
London SCM Press 1968 0334004098 / 9780334004097 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Very Good 
A Fine unmarked copy with dustjacket which has a small repaired closed tear to lower front. xv + 286 pages. The period of exile and restoration is a crucial one for the understanding of the development of Old Testament thought. The collapse of the state, the destruction of the Temple, the break-up of the community, all necessitated a re-thinking of the religious tradition. This book sets out to examine some of the aspects of the rich thought of the period. The problems involved are many: the course of events is not always clear, and the literature of the time presents difficulties. Much of this study is therefore devoted to a thorough scrutiny of what material we have: Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, Haggai, Zechariah, the Deuteronomic History and the Priestly Work. **** NOT EX LIB ****

3 Ackroyd, Peter London - The Biography
London Chatto and Windus 2000 1856197166 / 9781856197168 Hard Cover Fine Near Fine 
A Fine unmarked copy with near Fine dustjacket which is price clipped. xxiii + 822 pages. 65 illustrations. pictorial endpapers. Second printing. Much of Peter Ackroyd's work has been concerned with the life and past of London but here, as a culmination, is his definitive account of the city. For him London is a living organism, with its own laws of growth and change, so his London is a 'biography' not a history as such. It differs from other histories, too, in the range and diversity of its contents. Ackroyd portrays London from the time of the Druids to the beginning of the 21st century, noting magnificence in both epochs, but this is not a chronological record. There are chapters on the history of silence and the history of light, the history of childhood and the history of suicide, the history of cockney speech and the history of drink. Anecdotal, brilliant and wonderfully entertaining, animated by Ackroyd's concern for the close relationship between the present and the past. PLEASE NOTE : A HEAVY VOLUME OF 1.3 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST

4 Ackroyd, Peter The Life of Thomas More
London Chatto and Windus 1998 1856197115 / 9781856197113 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Very Good 
A Fine unmarked copy with VG dustjacket. 435 pages + 27 illustrations. Thomas More is one of the great figures in English history, but his life and career bear little resemblance to the myth of the saint or of 'the man for all seasons'. In this biography Peter Ackroyd reveals a man more troubled and more perplexing than that of any previous account, and offers a portrait as decisive as Holbein's famous drawing. **** NOT EX LIB **** *** A HEAVY VOLUME OF 0.93 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH WILL REQUIRE EXTRA SHIPPING COST ****
